Espresso Coffees

A very traditional Italian-style espresso, which is very well suited to lattè and cappuccino, where its punch cuts through the milky creaminess. Of course, this richly flavoured blend also lends itself to espresso - take a sip, close your eyes and you’re in a sun-kissed Italian piazza!

Our signature House Blend is currently a mix of two superb Brazilian coffees. A pulped natural blend scoring 84+ called Cascavel Verde and a natural processed IMPACT certified example from the Araujo Reis family at Fazenda Salto in Carmo de Cachoeira. The resulting blend is full of sweet fruit, chocolate and nutty flavours with a delicate citrus acidity.

Cascavel Verde, which translates as green rattlesnake, is named after one of the best pest controllers a farm can have. The South American Rattlesnake plays a key role in controlling rodents on coffee farms and lends its name to this blend of pulped natural coffees sourced from a variety of farms.

Our premium traditional Italian-style espresso. 100% arabica and 100% delicious, this blend is the number one choice for many of our professional and home baristas alike. Complex and aromatic with a great balance of bitter, sweet and gentle acidity it really is the genuine article.

The first blend we created in our new home on the Royal Arsenal - hence the name! A balanced blend of washed processed coffee from El Salvador and Colombia, this espresso is sweet and complex with notes of caramel and pecan, a cherry acidity, liquorice sugary sweetness and a lingering dark chocolate aftertaste.

Our Review Blend is a glorious mix of Brazilian, Ethiopian and Colombian arabicas. Fruity, with perfectly balanced acidity and sweetness, it's packed full of flavour and aroma.

Tasting notes: lemon zest and lime acidity, walnut, stone-fruit sweetness, hint of dark cocoa.

Espresso Roast

Processed in the innovative Descamex plant in Mexico, this superb coffee is gently decaffeinated by washing with pure, glacier water from Mexico's highest mountain, Pico de Orizaba. The raw coffee beans are immersed and washed in tanks which removes almost all the caffeine, and are then slowly dried over a period of four hours. This chemical-free method produces a coffee that is richly flavoured, full-bodied and 99.9% caffeine free and is, in our opinion, the best decaffeinated coffee we’ve ever tried.

One of our premium espresso blends, Siena is the coffee of choice for many of London's finest restaurants - and it's easy to see why! Mellow and rounded, but still with bite and an incredibly aromatic edge, it's full on from the first sip to the last.

We created this 100% Arabica espresso to serve the needs of the late 1990s London restaurant boom, where its blend of strength, flavour and balance made it stand out. It’s still a star performer now with a smooth and sweet finish that makes it perfect for espresso or ristretto.
